Mop is designed to clean
surfaces that will withstand high heat
and moisture. Do not use on unsealed
wood surfaces (especially wooden
antique furniture), unglazed ceramic
tile, painted surfaces or surfaces that
have been treated with wax, oils,
varnishes, or shellac. The sheen may be
removed by the heat, steam, and friction
of the cleaning tools. Lacquer and
polyurethane coatings provide a hard
durable protective finish that withstands
moisture, but it is always recommended
to test an isolated area of the surface to
be cleaned before proceeding.
We also recommend you check the use
and care instructions from the surface
manufacturer.
When cleaning finished wood surfaces,
use broad, continuous cleaning strokes.
To prevent surface damage, avoid
focusing steam or allowing the cleaning
tools to sit in one spot for any amount
of time.
When assembling your Shark
Lift-Away
™
Pro Steam Pocket®, there

Using Your Handheld Steamer
with Direct Steam Nozzle
Cleaning Tip: The Direct Steam Nozzle creates direct steam spray to clean and
sanitize hard to reach nooks & crannies and other places where germs may build
up. Use the Direct Steam nozzle to loosen and dislodge compact dirt often found
in corners and tight places where traditional methods and cleaning tools tend to
push dirt into, making it tough to reach and clean. Spray direct steam and wipe
clean with a wet cloth or paper towel.
fig. 16
2 To activate steam, first attach the
Direct Steam Nozzle to the Handheld
Steamer by snapping the Direct
Steam Nozzle into the main nozzle.
(fig. 16)
3 Then press and hold the steam
trigger button to start steaming.
While the steam trigger button is
pressed and held down, the
ON/STANDBY button light will be
solid blue. When released, the
ON/STANDBY button light will return
to flashing blue. (fig. 17)

will be very hot after steaming.
Using Your Handheld Steamer
Eng lis h
with Garment Steamer
Cleaning Tip: The Garment Steamer is ideal for removing wrinkles from clothing and
freshening and grooming upholstery. A terry bonnet and frame with bristles provides
controlled steaming for most types of clothing. A specialized micro-fiber bonnet is
ideal for freshening couches and other upholster y, where odors may accumulate.
fig. 18
fig. 19
CAUTION: Always determine color
fastness of any fabric, especially with
reds or blues. Taking a clean, moist,
warm towel and gently rubbing a
small area on the fabric that is as
out of sight and out of the way as
possible. If color bleeds onto the
towel, you may need to have the
piece professionally cleaned.
1 Select either the thinner, terry cloth
bonnet to steam your garments,
or the thicker, shaggier bonnet to
freshen upholstery.
2 Use the lavender loop on the side of
the bonnet to slide over the nozzle
opening of the Garment Steamer.
The elastic around the bonnet should
hold it firmly in place around the
Garment Steamer opening. (fig. 18)

3 Snap the frame with bristles over the
Garment Steamer. For ease of use,
we recommend that the bristles be
placed at the top of the Garment
Steamer bonnet. (fig. 18)

Steamer to the Handheld Steamer
by snapping it into the main nozzle.
(fig. 19)

button, and move slowly up and
down over your garments or
upholstery. While the steam trigger
button is pressed and held down, the
ON/STANDBY button light will be

(no powder detergent). Do not use
any fabric softeners or bleach. Line
dry or dry on a low dryer setting.
(fig. 25)
2 If there are loose threads on the
micro-fiber cleaning pad carefully
cut the thread with scissors. Don’t
pull on them or cut at the base.

3 Use the provided nozzle cleaner or a
small diameter stiff metal wire, such
as a straightened metal paperclip,
and carefully insert the end of the
wire into the nozzle orifice. See

Check your fuse or breaker.
If your unit still does not work, call 1-800-798-7398.
Is there water in the water tank? If not, add water to your steam
mop following instructions on page 4.
If the unit still does not make steam, follow the instructions on
page 13 to clean the nozzle.
If you have already plugged in your unit, unplug and try a
different outlet. This may reset the standby mode.
Add water to the tank and select steam setting by pressing the
standby button.
If your unit still does not work, call Customer care at

™
Check to see if your micro-fiber cleaning pad is too wet. We
recommend you unplug the steam mop and change the
micro-fiber cleaning pad.
Make sure the micro-fiber cleaning pad is attached correctly.
Do not leave your steam mop on the floor with a damp or
wet cleaning pad.
If you’re using tap water we recommend switching
to distilled water.
Make sure the cap is securely on the water tank.
The micro-fiber cleaning pad might be dirty. Flip or change the
cleaning pad.
If you washed the cleaning pad with powder detergent, then it
might be ruined. Replacement pads are available at
sharkclean.com.
This could also be an indication of prior soap or grease residue
that has accumulated on the floor. As our steam mops use only
a small amount of water, it may not be wet enough to rinse off
the accumulation that the steam is bringing to the surface. We
suggest rinsing the floor with nothing but water, letting it dry,
and then steam mopping again with a clean pad. One or more
rinses generally removes the residue.
A more stubborn case may require you to rinse the floor with a
mix of one part vinegar and two parts water.
Make sure the micro-fiber cleaning pad is attached correctly.
Check to see if the cleaning pad is excessively dirty. Replace if
the cleaning pad is too dirty or wet.
The small steam bonnet frame must be in place at all times
during usage. The bonnet prevents water drops from being left
on the garment and removes impurities from your water.
If the steam bonnet is too wet or the frame has condensation,
let the unit cool for 30 minutes, remove the steam bonnet and
let it dry out before using again, or replace with a new
steam bonnet.
